Weather in May
Temperature
The transition from April to May brings a subtle temperature rise, with average high-temperatures increasing from 76.1°F (24.5°C) to a still moderately hot 83.8°F (28.8°C). Hamburg measures a considerable dip from daytime highs with an average low-temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C) during May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
